Seeing Erica

Here are mine and Erica's kids attempting to pose for a photo. Oh my goodness this was hard work! Despite taking quite a few photos this was the best one I managed. It was lovely to see Erica and the kids and how much they've grown up! It was a shame we missed seeing Ian but hopefully we'll see him next time!

A Night out in Hamtown!

Matt and I don't often go out so it was pretty exciting to go out for a night with some of our best friends. We had dinner at the Thai original and then moved onto a bar.

Squirting Zach

Lucia had a ball in the pool squirting Zach while it was filling up! Poor Zach got a bit of a rough deal but he got her back later! These two have so much fun together! They're always giggling away while getting up to mischief!

Bella's Riveridge Boat

This is Bella's duplo Riveridge boat. Riveridge is a birthing centre in Hamilton. As you can see it is rather large. We had to photograph it so we could break it up to finally get some duplo back for other creations.

In the bottom of the boat are two Mummies with their babies and on top is where the Daddies sit to drive the boat. I think there might also be some other siblings up top as well. I suppose this brings a new meaning to the term water birth!

The Shaggy Ladies Reunion!

Sonya, Ellie, Jenni and I all met up with our little munchkins at the Hamilton Gardens. Andy also came along as chief photographer and child minder. It was very hot until we found the paddling pool. Containing kids in a maze of gardens is not that easy but it was nice to see my school friends and all their lovely kids! The next day they all came over to our place for some playtime which made catching up a bit easier. It would be so nice if we all lived closer!

Tippy!

Here is Tippy getting lots of love and attention from 3 little people! No wonder Tippy decided she wanted to live with us!

Shell's New House

Michelle, Dave, Connor and Jacob have moved out west to live on a lifestyle block. We got to go to their new house and feed their sheep! We thought their new house was really cool but we do wish it was a bit closer to us!!!! Shell and I are now plotting to get a baby goat!
